Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

I love this fan made Statesman Task Force trailer for i9.
For those who don't know in i7 the villains got the Lord Recluse Strike Force. It is sort of like an epic quest that a team does together. In it you go to Paragon City and beat the tar out of just about every signature hero in the game. That is what the opening lines in this trailer are referring to.

Holy shit dude. Holy shit. The music & editing on that are fucking awesome.

The song is Pendulum - Blood Sugar. Check it out sometime.

I find the music makes the video hard to watch, but I'm not a techno fan. Also not a fan of Mawg Spawn's voice, though everyone else seems to think it's exactly like old-school "instruction video" voices.

Same here. I wound up turning off the music.

I really just don't get the EVE videos at all. I always feel like I'm missing something when I watch them. I mean, okay, a montage of ships shooting at each other with grating music? Great. It's every other EVE video I've ever seen. What the fuck is going on? Who are those people? Who's winning the fight? What are they fighting over?

Also, that video used way too much fade. I felt like I was watching the entire thing through a dirty windshield.

Anyway, to actually contribute something, I found these while digging around Stage 6, and thought it was pretty cool. Basically, the EQ2 devs put together video guides for the various classes. They're kind of dated, now, but still pretty interesting, and show off some of the game's excellent spell effects and animations.

Not that they're fantastic videos or anything, although they are well-done (if quite corny), but it's cool to see that sort of attention paid to a MMO. Most are sort of like "Oh, you bought the game? Here's a shitty manual. Hope you like dredging through forums and fan sites if you want to learn anything about the game! Good luck."

Wait, what? I don't think Mawg's voice is in any of Stahl's videos. I could be wrong though.

Music's kind of a personal taste thing, but I love Stahl's choice of music. Especially because half the other Eve videos I've seen use boring "epic" soundtrack music.

As for the lack of information, most Eve videos are targeted at Eve players, who know the details of what's going on and who's involved. It'd be nice if there were videos that explained the politics behind the battles, but that'd really just end up involving a whole lot of text.

That said, here's a few Eve videos that give you enough background to kind of know what's going on in them.
